About West Oaks Childcare

Local Mamas Kelsey and Tia were both born and raised in the Parksville / Qualicum Beach area. They both have a shared passion for children which led them to their careers in Childcare. Tia has 15 years experience in the industry managing facilities in multiple cities such as Calgary, Fernie, Vancouver, and Parksville. Kelsey started her career 8 years ago as a Nanny and continued with Summer Camps in Fernie and now Preschool age children.

With their combined knowledge and dedication to children and with strong ties to the community, Kelsey and Tia have started West Oaks Childcare! They both are so grateful to be a part of your children’s lives and to have a positive impact on their growth and learning.

West Oaks Childcare is proud to be participating in the Child Care Fee Reduction Initiative. The CCFRI enhances childcare affordability by offering funding to eligible, licensed childcare providers to reduce and stabilize parents’ monthly fees. The CCFRI is currently for ages 0-Kindergarten and will expand to grades 1 and up as of September 2023.

On top of the CCFRI, West Oaks also accepts the Affordable Child Care Benefit (formally known as subsidy) to assist eligible families even further to bring down the cost of their monthly childcare fees.
